Trump speech - a setback to SICKULARISTS, MODI-BASHERS
Congress leader Manish Tewari flayed US President Donald Trump for not mentioning Mahatma Gandhi in the visitor book of Sabarmati Ashram and instead praising Modi and called him “great friend” (PM Modi) and called his tour a “wonderful visit”
“This is a snapshot of the note that someone sent. It ostensibly is @realDonaldTrumps note at Sabarmati. No mention of the Great Mahatma. Does he even know who Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was?” Manish Tewari wrote while tweeting the pictures of the visitor book.
tRUMP'S address had no mention of the protests that had hit India over the new Citizenship Amendment Act, which provides a fast track to naturalisation for migrants - including Hindus, Christians and Buddhists who entered India while fleeing religious persecution !!
But the law -- excludes Muslims. The new law has raised fears that the world's largest democracy is moving toward a religious citizenship test !!
In Ahmedabad,
Trump opened his speech by declaring that he traveled 8,000 miles to deliver the message that “America loves India, America respects India and America will always be faithful and loyal friends to the Indian people”.
He said PM Narendra Modi is a “tremendously successful leader” who has transformed India !!
(After the Nameste Trump programme, President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump left for Agra to enjoy the tourist attraction and one of the seven wonders - the majestic Taj Mahal.)
The US President heaped praises on PM Narendra Modi calling him an "exceptional leader" who works day and night !!
Narendra Modi hailed President Trump's leadership in fighting the menace of global terrorism.
Trump says all Indians --Hindus, Muslims, Christians and Jews, rich and poor -- must take pride in glories of past and bright future
Modi is a "living proof" of what an Indian can achieve with hard work: Donald Trump

Dance groups and singers from different parts of the country performed on stages that are dotting the 22- km route of the 'India roadshow'.
In his speech, Modi said: "The name of this program - Namaste -- it has a very deep meaning... It is one of the oldest languages in the world, a Sanskrit word. Its sense is that not only the person, but also the divinity within him".
Modi had good words for the work First Lady Melania Trump also and said -- "First Lady Melania Trump, it is an honour to have you here. What you have done for a healthy and happy America is getting good results. What you are doing for the children in the society is admirable".
